5.2.4 Setting the number of AIs in the base module
FL1E-H12RCE/FL1E-B12RCE and FL1E-H12SND support
up to four onboard inputs that can be used as either digital or
analog inuts (0 ...10V). Inputs I7 (AI1) and I8 (AI2) are
available as analog inputs by default, whether you use them
or not. Inputs I1 (AI3) and I2 (AI4) are optional analog inputs.
IDEC SmartRelay provides a menu where you can choose
to use two analog inputs (the default, AI1 and AI2), or four.
Regardless of the settings, inputs I1 and I2 can be used as
digital inputs. To use them as analog inputs AI3 and AI4, you
must set the 'BM AI NUM' to four. Note that the number of
configured analog inputs on the base module affects the
subsequent numbering of analog inputs on attached
expansion modules (See the "Maximum setup (Page 20)"
topic).
To set the number of AIs in parameter assignment mode:
1. Select parameter assignment mode (see Chapter 5.1.)
2. On the parameter assignment menu,

select ’Set’: Press or
3. Confirm ’Set..’: Press OK
4. On the Set menu, select ’BM AI NUM’: Press or
5. Confirm ’BM AI NUM’:
Press OK
6. Move to ’2AI’ or ’4AI’: Press or
7. Confirm selection. Press OK
To set the number of AIs in programming mode:
If you want to set the number of AIs in programming mode,
select ’Setup’ in the main menu, then menu ’BM AI NUM’.
You can now set the number of AIs as described earlier (as
of step 6.).
Note
If you change the number of analog inputs, IDEC SmartRelay re-
starts automatically.
